Felt weird yesterday

[JTL]

I've been living a shoe string budget for basicly for 3 years now, and going to the store and actually buying groceries with out fear. (Food was one of the main ways I cut corners)

I didn't go crazy or anything its just nice not to have to buy raman/mac and cheese and hot dogs.

Don't know why I wanted to post this, I just wanted to tell someone weird how something so small can feel really good

congrats JTL.. I have been in those same shoes before.. I actually had tears in my eyes at the grocery store the first time I realized I no longer had to suffer!

Don't feel odd, JTL. Back when I first joined, some one posted a thread about how good Doritoes tasted.

We all completely understand where you're coming from!

I look forward

To the day I can have chinese takeout or some other treat w/o having to scrape money from massive bills and wonder how I will buy gas.
From what Ive read here, we all can understand the joy of not eating hot dogs, ramen noodles, cheap canned soup or in my husbands case the odd relationship he has formed with spam...YUCK! Having lived in Korea for many years though the spam ramen thing isnt to odd.
Whatamess!
